Hello and thank you in advanced for reading my question, I was just wondering if anyone knew if this item's ability in enhancement has been substantially increased with the +2 version and if so, what possible increase is it?

Your question wasn't very clear either.

If your question is "does it provide any additional bonus to Phantom Roll beyond the NQ or +1," the answer is no.

The Phantom Roll enhancement as it stands gives a 33% chance of providing the job boost to the roll even if you don’t have that job in party. The +1 and +2 do not further boost this chance in any fashion of which I’ve heard or experienced.

Considering that most +2 items do enhance the potency of their buffs, I wouldn't be surprised if it does increase the effect of phantom roll more often. I'll do some tests when I have time, a decent sample size to say it's larger than a 33% chance of enhancement could take some time.

Possible I suppose. Hadn't really considered the fact other +2s further enhance, this should too. The logic is sound enough, though as stated, sample size would be a bit of a hassle. I've not experienced it being notably higher, though I freely admit this is eyeballing which can be wildly inaccurate.

Unless for some reason I'm using Blitzer's Roll, I always roll with it on anyhow though. No reason to not, really, reagardless.

BGWiki "claims" a +17% increase (50%) but I see no testing.

Wait. Which BG Wiki?

I see nothing about an additional +17% on this page:

You're right I apologize, it wasn't very clear and yes that is my question. Thanks for the info.

Dammit. Why wouldn't it be right on the hat page? -.-;

Well, it has "verification needed" so who knows if it's true or not.

Personally i believe the 50% chance to supercharge.

I did test this myself while fighting JoL and half the time (6/11 rolls) I supercharged Chaos roll w/o a Drk in pty. Would have tested more but had changed job to Thf, either way I strongly feel 50% seems about right.

Certainly not 50% last time I tested(tried to roll 100 times evoker to test +2 head last time), your sample size is too small.

Although I need to test again because bg-wiki's info about No.8 evokers seems wrong, ( http://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Evoker%27s_Roll http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Evoker%27s_Roll) and after I notice it's different I was already half way done with rolling, kinda pissed having to do it all over again ;<
